Coming home for Thanksgiving was a swell idea. I caught up with all of my friends here, caught up on my sleep, and actually accomplished something - my concerts / live shows pages are now complete! Check 'em out. Don't laugh at my creation that has ensued from years' worth of ticket stubs. Went shopping with Joe, my brother, today and also rented some movies, Friday the 13th Parts 1 & 2. Everyone will probably end up at Noah's tonight. Vacations rock. Happy Thanksgiving!
Jeremiah and I stumbled upon this shady-looking soup cellar on St. Marks Place last night. I like the juxtaposition of the pretty sign with the dank dungeon.
Head towards Toddshot, a site I recently discovered. He is a most excellent writer (read his "self-important blog" and his film review of Magnolia) and urge him to put the photography section back up! Check it out, say hello, wear the T-shirt.
I'm going, going back, back to Philly, Philly (to quasi-quote Notorious B.I.G.) this week. I haven't been out of New York City in three months. It will be nice to schlup around with very little to do except get coffee and stay out late at diners. The good life.
